A COMPLETE GUIDE TO 
SUCCESSFUL BEE-CULTURE, 
By L„ C. ROOT, 
Practical Apiarian. 
With 100 Illustrations, and a Portrait of M. Quinby. 
When the former editiob of this work appeared, in 1866, it 
marked a great advance in the literature of the Apiary, and 
at once became the stand?,' d authority. Very soon after its 
issue, the process of extracting honey was introduced, and 
almost revolutionized the practice of bee-keeping; this had 
hardly become an established success when comb-founda¬ 
tion demanded attention, aud required other modifications 
of former methods. These great improvements were tested, 
simplified, and adopted by Mr. Quinby, and with a view to 
present these and other new methods, he was planning a 
new edition, when his sudden death occurred, at the age of 
65. Thus was arrested a career of nearly half a century, 
during which he had devoted himself to the improvement 
and development of bee-culture, all of the fruits of which, 
in discoveries and. inventions, were freely given to his fel¬ 
low-laborers and the public. 
Though Mr. Quinby was prevented from preparing his 
contemplated new edition, the results of his later years of 
labor are not lost. The work fell to the hands of Mr. L. C. 
Root, his son-in-law, as well as his business associate for 
many years. That Mr. Root is favorably known as an 
Apiarian, is shown by the fact that he was, for many years, 
President of the Bee-keepers’ Association, and he now 
properly succeeds Mr. Quinby in literature, as well as in 
business. Indeed it is fortunate that the unfinished task of 
Mr Quinby has fallen into the hands of one who was so 
familiar with his methods and thought; while he presents 
Mr. Quinhy’s later views, as none other could have done, he 
greatly increases the value of the work by adding largely 
from the results of his own extended experience. It has 
not been found practieahle to indicate which of the new 
matter is by Mr. Quinby or which by Mr. Root, as the record 
is often of their united experience ; both being more desir¬ 
ous of establishing useful facts than of claiming the credit 
of their discovery. PRICE, POST-PAID, $1.50.

(From the New York Evening Post.) 
The book is profusely illustrated, and is likely to be 
accepted as a standard authority by the lovers of dogs 
and of those sports in which the dog shares. 
(From the New York Tribune.) 
Mr. J. H. Walsh (Stonehenge) has treated of most top¬ 
ics relating to the breeding, education, and general man¬ 
agement of the dog. He is regarded as the highest liv¬ 
ing authority on the subject, ana his counsels with all 
sporting men and dog-fanciers have the weight of ju¬ 
dicial decisions. The two works on which his reputation 
chiefly depends are reproduced in this edition in an 
abridged form, but retaining all the essential features of 
the original volumes, and at a great reduction from the 
price of the imported works. Such additional matter as 
was deemed desirable for American readers has been 
contributed by Mr. David W. Judd, by Mr. Henry Stew¬ 
art, and by Mr. F. R. Ryer, who is very favorably known 
as an expert in most of the branches of canine lore. The 
volume is chiefly of a descriptive character, giving a 
minute account of the different species, and presenting 
an admirable compendium of the natural history of the 
dog. but without the hard names and scientificgimcracks 
of zoological pedants. The practical directions relate 
mostly to the rearing and treatment of sporting ani¬ 
mals. The illustrations of the volume are uncommonly 
faithful and spirited, presenting several attractive speci¬ 
mens of canine nobleness and beauty. 
(From the N. Y. Commercial Advertiser .) 
It is the cheapest and the best book on dogs ever issued 
in this country. It is a 12mo., printed on tinted paper, 
contains over one hundred illustrations of famous dogs, 
and is presented to the public very handsomely hound. 
The great cost of good works on dogs Inis been a bar to 
their general circulation. Stonehenge sells for $11.25, 
while the new work which the Orange Judd Company 
give to the public to-day contains the most important 
portions of those works, together with chapters of inter¬ 
est to American readers which have been inserted, and 
may be obtained for $2. The new matter'is the produc¬ 
tion of David W. Judd and Henry Stewart, whose works 
on animals have a wide circulation, and by “Warwick,” 
of dog lore fame. These gentlemen are peculiarly quali¬ 
fied for the work, and making the use they have of 
Stonehenge,have produced the most valuable work bn dogs 
ever printed, and which is sold at a remarkably low price. 
(From Turf Field and Farm.) 
The name of Stonehenge is a sufficient guarantee that 
the pages fairly bristle with information. The breeding, 
training, and management in health and sickness of the 
several varieties of the canine family are given in the 
most comprehensive form. Attached to this useful work 
is also a dispensatory, giving the remedies suited to the 
dog in sickness, and the best means of administering 
them. These remedies are from the best practical au¬ 
thorities, and will be found to be valuable to all owners of 
dogs, and are well worth the price of the hook. 
(From the New York Evening Mail.) 
Stonehenge’s works are too costly to be within the 
reach of modest incomes, and it is a real boon to all lov¬ 
ers of the noble animal to have all the essential portions 
of the two volumes thns put in one hook at a moderate 
THE PRESS. 
price. AH the distinguishing marks of the best breeds 
are carefully and clearly noted. Five chapters are de¬ 
voted to the breeding, rearing, treating, and management 
of the dog, in-doors and out, especially the breaking and 
rearing of hunting dogs. Seven chapters arc allotted to 
the diseases of dogs and their treatment. The volume is 
the most complete and useful treatise on the dog which 
has appeared in the United States, and ought to he in the 
hands of every one who owns even one dog which he 
prizes. 
(From The New York Evening Express.) 
Every species of dog, from the little pet who is fondled 
in the boudoir or caressed in the parlor, to the stout mas¬ 
tiff who is feared by intruders and beloved by the house¬ 
hold, finds a place within the covers of the book. 
Attractive chapters upon shooting, and upon the use of 
the dog as the sportsman’s companion, are also included. 
The articles written on this side of the water are aide and 
concise, and the compilation of the volumes should be 
satisfactory to those who resort to it for pleasant reading, 
or for information. Stonehenge is a friend to the dog, 
and so will be the readers of the hook if an appreciation 
of tlie dog as man’s best friend.be not already assured. 
(From the Spirit of the Times, New York.) 
The higher the degree of civilization the more highly 
is tlie dog cherished for its sagacity and affectionate dis¬ 
position. A book, then, which has for its object to bring 
the dog into more prominent notice, and to encourage a 
refilling and more kindly disposition on tlie part of its 
owners, must always serve a good purpose. This new 
work on dogs will attract the notice of every friend of these 
animals, and will undoubtedly tend to largely add to the 
present increasing favor, with which they arc regarded. 
The work is a handsome book of nearly 400 pages, pro¬ 
fusely illustrated, with new engravings made exp>-essly 
for it by tlie well known artist and sportsman, Charles 
Hinkle, Esq., and is faultless in its typography and general 
appearance. It is a reproduction in part of those stan¬ 
dard works on the dog, “Stonehenge on the Dog, in 
Health and Disease,” and “The Dogs of the British 
Islands,” together with new and original matter by David 
W. Judd. Esq., and Mr. Henry Stewart, which makes the 
work more especially American in its aims, and renders 
it. more acceptable to American readers, than would be a 
mere reproduction of Stonehenge’s works with their 
peculiarly foreign tone and manner. The works of 
Stonehenge are very costly, and are thus beyond the 
reach of many willing American purchasers. This new 
work, however, costs hut one-fifth as much as the former, 
and is thus brought xvithin the reach of every owner of a 
dog. and every person who owns a dog should own a copy of 
this book. We cordially commend it to public notice. 
(From the New York Sportsman.) 
The minor details of merely local interest are omit¬ 
ted, everything of interest to American readers being 
reproduced from Stonehenge. The engravings number 
over one hundred, and embrace sixteen full-page cuts of 
many of the principal dogs on both Continents. The 
work is handsomely printed on tinted paper, and alto¬ 
gether makes a most superb volume. 
From the Chicago Field: Tlie price of the work is 
$2.00, for what would otherwise cost $11.25.
